Contrasting Morecambe with Torremolinos - air masses & climate graphs

Air masses have a great influence on the climates of Morecambe and Torremolinos. The prevailing wind in Morecambe is north-westerly, bringing cold, wet weather. The prevailing wind in Torremolinos is south-easterly, bringing warm, dry weather. Climate graphs illustrate these differences. Tourists to the Costa del Sol book their holidays according to the climate, but when they arrive, the weather could be very different to what they're expecting.
